After updating linux-firmware to 20240318.git3b128b60-0ubuntu2.27 I can get past the Lenovo screen to the LM logo, but the field for the decryption password doesn’t appear.
Restarting from the hanging LM logo screen after this happens, the GRUB menu appears after the Lenovo screen, and then I’m able to boot and decrypt using an earlier kernel.
I suppose I could just not update these things, but that seems like it might not be the best idea (and I may not have all my facts straight or explained things very well, I’m a little tired at the moment). I’ve Timeshifted back to before those updates for now. Anyway, any suggestions?
If you’re confident your timeshifts are working, I’d just try installing the update again and see what happens, then revert if it doesn’t work.
Yeah, my system doesn’t seem to like either the newest linux firmware update or kernel. I’ve told the update manager to skip them; maybe the next versions won’t be so troublesome.
I actually didn’t know this, but I was able (in fact the only way I was able) to Timeshift back was using my mintstick of long ago. I didn’t realize that the USB could detect and load the snapshots from my laptop. Good thing I figured it out, because I don’t know how else I would’ve gotten back in!
